Preparation of a Liquid Crystal Panel

[0059](a) A 30% (w / w) siloxane side-chain liquid crystal elastomer in methylene chloride was deaerated for 3 hours (h) while being shielded from light, and then was uniformly coated onto a color filter substrate (available from DNP, Japan) in a region between pixel area and sealant area to form a retaining ring having a width of 300 μm and a thickness of 3 μm. The distance of the outer edge of the retaining ring from the inner edge of the sealant area is 50 μm, and the distance of the inner edge of the retaining ring from the outer edge of the pixel area is 100 μm. The siloxane side-chain liquid crystal elastomer was prepared by the process described in Example 2 of CN102643432A.

[0060](b) A sealant (UR-2920, available from SEKISUI CHEMICAL CO., LTD) was deaerated for 2 h while being shielded from light, and then was uniformly applied to the sealant area of the color filter substrate obtained from step (a).

Preparation of a Liquid Crystal Panel

[0062]The liquid crystal panel was prepared by the process described in Example 1, except that the retaining ring had a width of 200 μm and a thickness of 4 μm. The distance of the outer edge of the retaining ring from the inner edge of the sealant area is 100 μm, and the distance of the inner edge of the retaining ring from the outer edge of the pixel area is 150 μm.

Abstract

An elastomeric material, a color filter substrate and a liquid crystal panel are disclosed. The elastomeric material is prepared by subjecting a mixture of a siloxane side-chain liquid crystal elastomer, a polymerizable liquid crystalline monomer and a photoinitiator to UV irradiation to induce polymerization. The color filter substrate comprises a sealant and a pixel area, with a retaining ring disposed therebetween, wherein the retaining ring is prepared from the siloxane side-chain liquid crystal elastomer or the elastomeric material. The liquid crystal panel is prepared by assembling and aligning, under vacuum, an array substrate and the color filter substrate. By applying a ring of the elastomeric material having a network structure between the sealant and the pixel area according to the invention, it is possible to effectively prevent the impact of liquid crystal on the sealant during cell assembly and alignment, such that the undesirable phenomenon like penetration is minimized.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to the technical field of the preparation of liquid crystal display panels. More particularly, the present invention relates to an elastomeric material, a color filter substrate prepared from the elastomeric material, and a liquid crystal panel comprising the color filter substrate.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]A liquid crystal display panel is prepared by assembling and aligning, under vacuum, an array substrate on which liquid crystal has been dropped and a color filter substrate coated with an adhesive (which is also referred to as sealant). FIG. 1 shows the schematic view of the construction of a typical liquid crystal display panel, which comprises a pixel area 1, an alignment layer 2, a sealant 3, a color filter black matrix 4 and a glass substrate 5. Currently, there are a variety of sealants commercially available in the markets. The main ingredients of the sealants include ultraviolet (UV) polymerizable monomers, ...
